Obtaining senior management support for establishing a warm site can BEST be accomplished by:
A . establishing a periodic risk assessment.
B . promoting regulatory requirements.
C . developing a business case.
D . developing effective metrics.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Business case development, including a cost-benefit analysis, will be most persuasive to management. A risk assessment may be included in the business ease, but by itself will not be as effective in gaining management support. Informing management of regulatory requirements may help gain support for initiatives, but given that more than half of all organizations are not in compliance with regulations, it is unlikely to be sufficient in many cases. Good metrics which provide assurance that initiatives are meeting organizational goals will also be useful, but are insufficient in gaining management support.
